<h1>Group Access</h1>
Group Access is the process of assigning groups to roles in the tree. A
group access consists of 3 parts: a node in which it applies, a role
and a group. In practice, any users belonging to the group will receive 
the permissions specified in the role in the node specified. If the role 
is recursive then the permissions will be available within the branch of 
the tree rooted in the node.<br>
<br>
Group accesses can be viewed in two ways. On any node in the tree press
the "Group Access" tab on  the main panel. It will show a complete list 
of group accesses that are assigned in the specified node and any node 
between it and the root. Alternatively, to find group accesses by group, 
proceed to the Group node and select the "My Access" tab. This will 
bring up a complete list of group accesses assigned to the current group.<br>
<h2>Creating Group Access</h2>
Select the desired node for the group access in the tree. On the
toolbar, press "Create Group Access" (if it is not enabled then you
don't have permission). You will be prompted to select a group and a
role using two comboboxes. Press OK to accept the Group Access or Cancel
to discard it.<br>
<br>
A change log will be recorded in the group for the addition of a group
access.<br>
<h2>Deleting Group Access</h2>
Find a Group Access using either method described above. Select a group
access in the table. If you have permission to delete it then the
Delete button will become enabled. Pressing the delete button will
result in the group access being deleted and an appropriate change log
being recorded under the group's node.
